Ponting hoped that there might be a change in Prithvi Shaw’s behavior this season.
Great disclosure of Ponting on Earth
A statement by former Australia veteran Ricky Ponting is in the news. This statement is also a kind of disclosure. Before proceeding further, let’s say that Ricky Ponting is the coach of Delhi Capitals these days. In an interview, Ricky Ponting said that when Prithvi Shaw was going through poor form, he refused to bat in the nets. It is generally said that when a batsman is not scoring runs, then he works on his mistake in the nets. But Ponting clearly told that when he told Prithvi to bat in the nets and see where the mistake was happening, he refused to bat. Ricky Ponting says that this decision of Prithvi Shaw for him was shocking. Ponting hoped that there might be a change in Prithvi Shaw’s behavior this season.
Prithvi is a part of Delhi’s team. Delhi team has not won any IPL season till date. In this season, the responsibility of captaining the team has been entrusted to Rishabh Pant. Shreyas Iyer suffered an injury during the ODI series between India and England. Pant has been given the command of the team for this reason. But the big question is that from where has Prithvi Shaw’s story reached in the last 6-7 years of his career.
Earth was compared to Sachin Tendulkar
Remember, it is around 2013-2014. Prithvi Shaw’s discussion started very loudly. It was being said that the next Sachin Tendulkar has stepped into the cricket field. Actually, Prithvi had made many such records in school and domestic cricket which were once named after Sachin. He was also like Sachin in the saddle. He also considered Sachin as his ideal. He also tried to copy Sachin. The International Cricket Council (IIC), the governing body of cricket all over the world, had also given the title of one of its videos, whether Prithvi Shaw is the next Sachin Tendulkar of India? That is, it was discussed that Prithvi Sav is ‘Special Talent’. But after the revelations of Delhi Capitals coach Ricky Ponting in 2021 today, the question is whether Prithvi Shaw is doing justice to his ‘Special Talent’, which has led to him being compared to Sachin Tendulkar? In international cricket, players are tested on 3-4 criteria. The player’s form, his fitness, records and his commitments. Now is the time when Prithvi Shaw should ask himself, does he even look around Sachin Tendulkar on these criteria?
Prithvi Shaw is not considered a superstar just like this
A connoisseur like Ricky Ponting did not just call Prithvi Shaw a superstar. He is an outstanding player of the backfoot. Quickly catch the length of the ball. If you see his style of standing at the crease, then you will understand that he is always ready to play shots. Earth’s ‘placement’ and ‘timing’ are amazing. He enjoys playing his natural game. That is why when you see Prithvi Shaw playing, many times it seems that a player has been made by combining Sachin and Sehwag. It should also be remembered that he is the same Prithvi Shaw under whose captaincy India has won the Under 19 World Cup. Who is the youngest batsman to score a century in the first match of a Test career. But this is the same Prithvi Shaw who got caught in a doping controversy only a few months after starting his career. He was banned. These are the same earth whose questions have arisen regarding their behavior. This incident was raised during Ranji Trophy. When the cover hidden under the hand of the team manager, it was revealed that the management is worried about Shaw’s behavior. Not only this, the news also came that Prithvi Shaw has fallen victim to ‘depression’. In this connection, the disclosure of Ricky Ponting is a new episode.
